Tripadvisor 4.9/5 (2,236 reviews) and Google 4.7/5 (444); mid-range Xiaohongshu volume, with the treehouse villas, family value (kids 2-12 eat free) and the eco focus as the main draws. The consistent draws: a good house reef (snorkelling with turtles), the design and privacy of the treehouses and private Residences, and eight restaurants with produce from the on-site farm. The consistent weaknesses: pricey a la carte, drinks and extras with a high total, occasional minor maintenance issues, and a big island where you cycle to get around.
